In this episode of the All the Books Show, we interview author Alan Dean Foster!

As prolific at they come, Foster has written many original stories, such as Icerigger. And, of course, if you’ve read a movie novelization, there’s a good chance you’ve read Alan Dean Foster.

We talk to him about his early work, about Splinter of the Mind’s Eye, his Star Trek work, his many other novelizations and works and what’s next.

We had another author guest on the podcast and this time it was poet Naomi Shihab Nye! Neat!

During her talk at the David A. Howe Public Library, she spoke about revising poetry even after it’s been published, about being political vs. being rude and wondered what a state motto has to say about it’s state. It was a great night and her interview on the podcast gives you a peak into why. We also talk about previous guests to the library, such as Archer Mayor, Joyce Carol Oates and Alexander McCall Smith. What a lineup!

The rest of the show, we talk about Gwendy’s Button Box, the New York Times Best Sellers list and partake in our regular shenanigans. What a funny word “shenanigans” is. It’s tricky to say out loud, it’s spelled differently than one might think. It really does contain multitudes.
